Review: Habia leido algunas reseñas negativas con relacion a que el producto venía con insectos pero decidí arriesgarme y creo que fue un acierto enorme. El producto llegó a tiempo y bien embalado. El empaque venía impecablemente limpio, nignuna traza de suciedad o cualquier otro tipo de residuos, parecía recien salido de fabrica, quizá tuve suerte de recibir un producto de un lote muy reciente. En cuanto al arroz como tal, es una maravilla para preparar sushi. Solo hay que seguir las instrucciones de lavado y cocimiento, no hay pierde.

Google says a bathtub holds at least 35 gallons so 8-10 bags oughta do it. **Q: Is this a high glutinous rice used to make fermented rice wine?** A: No. This is a polished, medium grain sticky rice. This is for using as a rice to be served as a side with a meal. Because this is a sticky rice it will be easier to eat with Japanese style chopsticks. You need to look for a glutinous sweet rice for what you want to do. **Q: where is product grown? Thank you.** A: I have a bag, and it says "Product of USA". Yet the distributor JFC international, distributes products from Japan and Asia. I haven't found where it says this rice is grown in California. However California is the 2nd largest producer of rice ,next to Arkansas, in the United States. **Q: What Type Is This?** A: It is a medium white rice. You have to cook it. It is not A quick/minute rice. It is a sticky rice. Where it was grown should be on the products Amazon page. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***N on April 8, 2025* Habia leido algunas reseñas negativas con relacion a que el producto venía con insectos pero decidí arriesgarme y creo que fue un acierto enorme.
